Fast Ethernet media converter

The Perle 05070314 is a managed media converter that links 10/100Base-TX copper to 100Base-FX fibre. It provides one RJ-45 network port, one ST duplex fibre port and an RJ-45 RS-232 console port for local management. SNMP support gives administrators full visibility and control over the fibre link.

Extending copper runs over multimode fibre

This unit suits network teams that need to push a Fast Ethernet segment beyond the 100-metre copper limit using existing multimode infrastructure. It is not for environments that require Gigabit or 10-Gigabit throughput, nor for single-mode fibre runs longer than the specified distance.

Maximum fibre reach of 1.24 miles

The converter transports 100 Mbps traffic over multimode fibre up to 1.24 miles, which is the decisive figure when planning link length. If the required span exceeds this distance, a different converter must be chosen.

Questions about this item

How often will the ST duplex fiber connector need cleaning or replacement?

The ST duplex connector is a passive optical interface; it requires periodic inspection and cleaning with a lint-free swab and isopropyl alcohol, but no scheduled replacement interval is defined by the manufacturer.

What limits sustained throughput on the 100Base-FX link?

The 100Base-FX standard caps the fiber port at 100 Mbps full-duplex, so sustained traffic cannot exceed that rate regardless of cable quality or distance.

How much heat does the module generate when running continuously?

The unit has no active cooling and draws minimal power typical for a Fast Ethernet transceiver, so heat output remains low during all-day operation.
